Die Sommerrosen blühen
 (Sung text for setting by F. Hensel)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Sommerrosen blühen
Und duften all' so her;
Ich seh' sie still verglühen;
Ich will nicht Blumen mehr.

Der Liebste mein that ziehen
Zu Königs stolzem Heer,
Läßt einsam mich verblühen;
Will keine Blumen mehr.

Die blanken Waffen sprühen
Viel Funken um ihn her;
Das Herze tut ihm glühen;
Er will nicht Blumen mehr.

Und Silbersterne blühen
Um Helm und Brustschild her,
Die blitzend ihn umziehen;
Will keine Blumen mehr.

Die Somnmerrosen glühen
Und duften all' so sehr;
Ach, lasst sie nur verglühen;
Ich will nicht Blumen mehr.

Note: the footnotes below refer to Fanny Hensel's setting.
